Looks like you have selected "New Solid",... try unselecting that and see if your cut un-greys itself?

Try this:
Turn off other sketches then extrude it again.

you do NOT have any solid bodies to cut into, only surfaces. you must first make a solid model from the surfaces, then you can cut into it.
